Local Area Agreements and Planning
Purpose
This module will explain the ‘place-shaping’ responsibilities of local authorities to work through local strategic partnerships (LSPs) in developing sustainable community strategies (SCSs), and how these are intended to powerfully inform local development framework (LDF) documents and the priorities for delivery through LAAs.
Benefits
The LAA is a fundamental part of the new performance framework for local government and its growing importance will affect the role of planners with local and regional authorities, placing the contribution of planning into a more corporate role within local government, and within the wider local government family of partnerships
